In the quiet aftermath of a marriage that began with hope and promise, Casey Elizabeth Cooper stands poised to reclaim her life. The once-vibrant union with Luke James Tripp, forged in the heart of Kansas City on March 7, 2023, has unraveled into a complex tapestry of shared memories and unmet expectations. Their separation, which took place on May 3, 2025, now necessitates the formal dissolution of their vows, a process initiated with the filing of her petition on October 16, 2025.
Guided by the experienced hand of Mark A. Wortman, her attorney, Casey seeks not only an end to their marital bond but also a fair and equitable division of their accumulated property and debts. Beneath the surface lies the pressing concern of their young daughter, L.E.T., whose well-being remains at the forefront of Casey’s mind. She requests joint legal and physical custody, envisioning a nurturing environment for her child, one that honors both parents while safeguarding her daughter’s stability.
In this chapter marked by uncertainty, Casey’s plea is clear: she desires the court to recognize her separate property and to ensure that both parties emerge from this dissolution with dignity intact. The journey ahead is fraught with challenges, yet it is also one of reclamation—a reclamation of self, of motherhood, and a future unshackled from the past.
